Isn't the point that they had 4 shots and scored with each?

I did that maybe 10 matches back against Tottenham in the EURO Cup by playing counterattacking football. 3 shots, 3 on target, 3 goals (H)

Tottenham had 21 shots, 6 on target, 1 goal :$

But my real point, as I've pointed out in ILSATS' earlier screenshots as well, is that he always has such a low on-target rate and he doesn't have a specific strategy/tactic to convert from corners. I think he had one screenshot many pages back where he scored 0 goals from 23 corners lol, that is just terrible. I have 4 players with 16+ heading, I'd say I've been able to convert 1 in 5 corners into a goal. If you don't have players with heading then play it short and drill a cross in or try to hold up ball then work back into box.

I usually score 1 goal from a corner every match. Maybe not 1 in 5, I guess more 1 in 7-8? But I'm also playing in Serie A with mostly 2.5-3.5 star ability players looking to develop them into 4.5-5 star. Once that happens I think I can do 1 in 5 for sure. I would recommend looking through the tactics forum for attacking corner instructions that work well in 14.3

I just finished my 4th season, have overall head coach record of 408 goals scored, 329 goals allowed (started in Serie C1/A btw)

will try. In last save finished 15th season.. 1120 games 3143g for 690g against. I scored +-20 goals from corners in league.

Now in new save 26 games 3 goals from 162 corners.

Yes, message received. My tactics are terrible at corners.
Now please can we move on and go into the main point ? Or maybe you should just leave this thread now, for the sake of us. This is "Post your frustration" thread, where we can share our frustration with other people having the same problems and somehow it will ease of. This is not "Post your frustration and then receive more frustration" thread. We don't want to post here and then receive some responses from guys who will try to exploit everything in our screenshots to tell us this and that, because it will only annoy us more. You may think you are helping us, but you are not. I'm really tired of arguing with you guys. First Mike, then now you.
Thank you.

Ahahaha, point taken. More screens! (entertaining for me) I won't comment next time on yours.

show us your goal from corners stats.

btw my game crashed once again, and ive managed to win 4 -1 on Shakhtar after 2-3 defeat at home. Now im expecting at least one hour of simulating to win again...

what a surprise 8th attempt successful, won 6-2, then crashed again, glad ive managed to save this time....

funny how everyone complains about SCORING from corners (not my problem, i literally get a goal every other game from corners which is crazy.. all i do is set best header onto near post and set the corner to go there or i will put the striker near post if a lot of the corners are coming to feet.) my problem is CONCEDING corners. I'm not tactically savvy.. i mean i can make tactics that allow my teams to punch above their weight but when it comes to these set pieces no matter what i do to defend them i concede regardless. quite frustrating!

Yea with 14.3, you have to make your own defending corners tactic. Basically, just have your best CB mark their tall player, have the another CB man mark, have your fullbacks guard near/far post, everyone else, have them "go back", have one striker on edge of area to help clear

Will try that!
I play a 4-2-3-1 and my smallest players are my wingers.. should i put them on the posts? might be worth testing having my AMC on the edge of the area with my ST up top still..

Enough is enough with this game. I'm sick of finishing matches on the losing side when we outplay the opposition. we finish with 20-30 more shots than the opposition, have more on target, more possession, more time attacking, even when they only have 1 on target i still ****** draw or lose. I won the ****** league in the first season with Arsenal, can't even win a home game against **** sides now.

Doesn't matter what i do with my tactics, even when i waste time at the end of matches where we are winning 1-0, the opposition still manages a last minute equalizer.

No more, this has ceased to be fun.

The games fixed as **** too! got knocked out in the Scottish Cup to Peterhead (in the worst SPFL recognised league) and here's me as Aberdeen (2nd best team in Scottish Prem) and i lose 1-0 and i shamelessly rage quit. reload the save lose 1-0 again (again a rage quit) and i load it one more time and guess what the score was? 1-0!

Lol, I won a fixture 4-2, then my game crashed, then I won that same fixture again 4-2. That's surprisingly consistent.

 

[carlos_fierro]

It is but it's not the norm. I rage quit on a Real Madrid game (GK passed to C.Ron; two men sent off; four injuries; most of the play, shots ******; etc etc - I was well within my rights). Changed nothing at all in my lineup or my tactics. Three heavy defeats (plus injuries, sendings off, etc) and one 2-0 win with everyone fit and no bookings, with "tactical masterstroke" reports afterwards.

If anything, this game is just a random set of variables made to look like a football match.

 

[shakar]

The GKs are also "great", sometimes making impossible saves, sometimes letting ball in like blind f****r. Lost last match after Valdes couldnt stop the pass from 40m FK which hit the bar ( !!!! ) and rebound fell to opposition player.....

 

[miguelalves]

Personaly I don't see the point of complaining at these forums when there's a SI forum to do it.

 

[Celtic boy]

Curious question?? How many still play fm 14 after complaining and have gone back to fm 13 or 12??
I mean all of the above happens to I just wanna does this happen every game I dominant team play great first half and come 2nd half there team is the best team ever perfect passing and fast running even with super low pace and accelerating stats and my team run around like headless chickens and can't pass even though got the best passing team in league and fastest team and play idiots compared to first half??? I mean WTF!!! And players where 7+ratings at half time with all players green after half time talk and play stupid like lower league team? Can't pass can't pass and can't run and can't def ?? No Matter what I do or try? I watch my 2nd half in full to try stop it nothing helps serious sad and irritated and concede every 2nd half or loose coz of 2nd half performance?

 

[carlos_fierro]

I found only putting key highlights on helped with the frustration. You don't see your stars spoon their shots from six yards quite so often.
